2019 Saint Agnes Stewardship Renewal

“Do small things with great love.”
Mother Teresa

“By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:35

While serving as a parish priest at Saint Brendan’s on the South Side of Chicago in the 1960’s, then-Father Peter Scholtes searched for an appropriate song for a series of ecumenical, interracial events for his youth choir. He couldn’t find such a song. Inspired by John 13:35, he wrote a simple hymn in a single day. The first verse is as follows:

We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord
We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord
And we pray that our unity will one day be restored
And they’ll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
Yeah they’ll know we are Christians by our love

At this time of stewardship renewal, please consider the needs of our Saint Agnes Community as well as how your time, talent and treasure can help meet those needs. Are you willing to stretch beyond what you have always done and try something new? Regardless of whether you are able to participate in large or small ways, are you willing to do so with great love?

Stewardship renewal is our opportunity to say “thank you” to God by committing to share a just and fair portion of our time, talents, and financial blessings to continue to do His work. By completing, returning, and then fulfilling your stewardship intention form, you are demonstrating your desire to continue as a vital part of the body of believers who gather as Saint Agnes Catholic Community. Thank you for answering Jesus’ call to “love one another.”
